Archie Moore was the cross defense master. I wish he would have shown George Foreman that guard when he was younger. My homeboi Jimmy Young sent George into retirement. But, back then, if George knew how to box he wound of killed Jimmy Young.
Canelo wasn’t intending on landing the left hook tho that why it was so short from the target but either way it woulda been blocked
Oh the cross guard i rarely used that but it very effective
Forgotten? Yeah okay.
Joe Frazier used this alot as well
How is it forgotten if he’s doing it
Georger Foreman ☠️🗣️
How did that work out for y'all???
Karate? Many fisticuff techniques were adopted into karste
🎉❤
Man really did his research F-canelo
It leaves ready to throw the perfect punch
mayweather does it also and runs
only the ones who have boxed know how relevant this is 🙂
cotto use it against manny, but not effective
FRAZIER USED THIS TECHNIQUE AGAINST ALI THATS WHY HE WAS ABLE TO GET INSIDE AND BEAT ALI😊
As soon as he did that block I thought "That's just like Georgia!" 😅😂😅
The shell or Chicago shell defense
I use that cross guard too. except… watch out for the uppercut lol
Georgia Foreman?
Archie Moore taught it to both Norton and Foreman! He coached both back in the day! He was the master of the cross guard.
Who the hell is Georgia Foreman? 🤨
#kungfuguard 😮❤
☠️
That last punch was definitely CTE eligible
i did that in my first sparing match without any training
Georgia Forman?
A lot of people used it but when I think of that type of defense I think of only one person , Big George Foreman.
Georgia Foreman 😅
I'm from the Philippines. And cotto is so popular hear at the time he fought pac, he damage his ears… So rare pac hurt on the fight… And I never see Manny walking in the ring look so nervous… Cotto is very intimidating fighter..
Probably what started the blue print for the philly shell
The only defense that works is Floyd’s y’all should master that. His speech didn’t come from head trauma he was already stupid 😂😂. Floyd best defense hands down though
Ai is so annoying
Georgia foreman? 😂😂😂
this is going to come in handy
While the cross-arm guard was once a popular technique among boxers, it's now less common due to the rise of simpler defenses like the high guard. The cross-arm guard is more intricate and takes longer to learn, but boxers who master it are known for their proficiency. Essentially it is a variation of the Philly Shell, but came out LONG before the Philly Shell ever rose to prominence.
He trusted the guard so much, he held it for two sequences of punches from two different angles..
